Brazilian workers tired of waiting years in court are selling labor lawsuits to get advance payments. Companies are offering up to 70% of the legal credit in just 24 hours.
The Justice of the Jobs Brazilian society keeps a disturbing secret: millions of workers wait years to see the color of the money won in lawsuits.
This delay sometimes extends to almost a decade, leading many to take unexpected action.
Tired of waiting, more and more Brazilians are selling their labor processes to specialized companies.

According to official data, more than 9,5 million active labor lawsuits generate around R$938 billion in compensation in Brazil.
However, the average processing time of five years and the additional wait of up to three years after the second instance ruling have led many claimants to seek faster alternatives to receive their rights.
One solution that has been gaining popularity is assignment of judicial credit, legal practice provided for in article 286 of the Civil Code.
Companies offer legal credit purchase services, allowing workers to receive part of the amount they are entitled to within 24 hours of negotiation.
How the sale of labor lawsuits works
According to TNH1 website, specialized companies, such as Anttecipe.com, purchase legal credits from labor lawsuits that already have a favorable ruling in the second instance.
These credits belong to lawsuits filed against financially solid, medium and large-sized companies.
The worker can receive up to 70% of the net value of his/her legal action, depending on the analysis of the case, in a completely online process.
“Many people face severe financial difficulties and cannot wait years for a legal dispute to be concluded. Anticipating these amounts is a way to help them overcome these barriers,” explains Herbert Camilo, operations director at Anttecipe.com.
Furthermore, selling the process eliminates the risk of not receiving the amount due, even after winning the case, in cases such as the bankruptcy of the company being sued.
This security has attracted workers who prefer to give up part of the credit in exchange for immediate liquidity.
Where does the money received go?
The reports from those who have already adopted this alternative reveal transformative stories.
The advance money is used to pay off debts, invest in new businesses or even pay for medical treatments.
“We have received emotional testimonials from people who were able to regularize their finances or make their dreams come true with the advance money. It is gratifying to know that we are providing relief and new opportunities,” says Denys Paulon, financial director of Anttecipe.com.
Loans secured by labor lawsuits
In addition to the direct sale of processes, another new feature offered by Anttecipe.com is the possibility of using labor actions as collateral for personal loans.
This innovative modality serves those who need quick money, but do not have assets such as real estate or vehicles to offer as collateral.
The operation is also quick: within 24 hours of signing the contract, the amount is available in the customer's account.
“This solution was created to meet the growing demand of families who need immediate resources to pay off debts or invest in businesses. It is an alternative that offers relief in times of economic difficulty,” adds Camilo.
Demand growth and social impact
With inflation and high levels of debt among Brazilian families, services like Anttecipe.com have become a valuable resource for many people.
According to experts, the increase in the demand for advance payment of legal credits reflects the country's financial reality, where many workers face difficulties in covering basic expenses such as housing and food.
While the Justice of the Jobs attempts to unblock bottlenecks in the system, private solutions such as credit assignment and loans guaranteed by labor actions offer quick and safe alternatives.
It remains to be seen to what extent these services will be able to meet growing demand and bring relief to millions of workers.
Would you use your labor action to pay off debts or invest?
**** Fake news
They just forgot to say that, if you have 100 thousand to receive, the so-called “office” will pay you a maximum of 10 thousand for your cause. OAB should investigate these pseudo “offices”, yes, but as always, OAB only serves to charge annual fees.
I would use it if the amount to be received was not excessively reduced.
